Attractions

Manor of the manor

The main attraction of the place is the 12th century church with the Romanesque baptismal font. After a fire that destroyed it, it was enlarged and rebuilt. In the 16th century it experienced a profound renewal. A special feature is the mansion chairs that can be reached via a separate entrance. In this patronage box , the walls are decorated with painted canvas. There used to be three bells in the tower, but only one remains, dating from the 14th century. It is described with minuscules , which is very rare, if not unique, in Germany.

Further sights are the manor house of the manor, the birth house of the poet and children's book author Adolf Holst as well as the diverse flora and fauna in and around Branderoda with numerous orchid species and other protected plants and animals.

Also worth seeing are the head linden on the Distelberg south of the locality of Branderoda, rare evidence of almost forgotten cultivation and uses of the native linden trees.

So far, the meaning and use of the large stones that can be found in prominent places in the area remains a mystery. It is unclear whether these are some kind of peasant stones or rider stones that served as climbing aids for riders.
